The implication of the city of Paris in the explosion of the rue de Trévise, which killed four people in January 2019, was confirmed by the final expert report ordered by the justice, which AFP had knowledge this Monday.
Validating the conclusions of a progress document made public in December, this report notes in particular a "lack of vigilance and technicality of the roads" of the city of Paris, estimating that "the explosion could have been avoided" if the cause of the subsidence of the sidewalk in front of the building where it occurred had been sought upstream by the municipality.
Saturday morning January 12, a very strong explosion had blown this district of the 9th district of Paris, killing four people, including two firefighters, and making some 400 victims. In a provisional report made at the end of December, four experts mandated by the examining magistrates to determine the causes of the incident and the possible faults committed blamed the "failings" of the road service of the city of Paris and a public works company that he had mandated.
